บท 90: NINETY: I Missed You, Your Majesty

Kel sat on her bed frozen as she stared in disbelief at the man standing inside her room. Even as he stood with his hands on his knees, panting for breath, he looked like a work of art. It could be because she'd been away from those brilliant looks for so long, but she'd nearly forgotten how incredibly handsome the Dragon Emperor was.

When she finally came back to her senses, Kel exclaimed, "Your Majest-"

"Shhhh!" The emperor dashed to the bed and tackled her, clamping a hand over her mouth. 

Holding one of her arms firmly above her head with her entire body pinned below his own, the emperor hissed between breaths, "Just.. be.. be a bit quiet."

Kel's own breathing deepened underneath the man's weight. He was using his knees to brace himself so it wasn't quite so heavy, but Kel still found herself unable to even squirm. She couldn't tell if the loud thudding against her chest was from her heart or the emperor's.
